Really needing to work on this pony while the weather is beautiful is not good. My little one keeps asking me if we can go out and play

[Colorscapesart]

Go out and play   It will keep a bit.

Done! Took the rollers of last night and got the topper on, she looks good to my eye as soon as get home I will try to design a packet that will hold her in one piece while travelling to my dear partner

What kind of little extras are people sending?

[Diamond]

Argh - I am so sorry I am behind, I am afraid real life this last few weeks kicked my free time out the window.  With luck though by the end of this week I will see mine almost done.  Right now the pole is giving me fits.

I honestly won't have extras in my box.  Shipping this heavy thing is going to be rough enough!

Yep, with shipping costing as much as it is, I'm probably only going to be able to squeeze a few little things in. I won't be expecting any extras, either.

Tomorrow is the shippingday for me... Now I must wish that my luck on int.shipping still works, because I can't afford to ship this one on registered mail! I will ship priority mail, and as a "big letter" it will cost me 26 euros! If I would take registered packet it would be over 40 euros....  So that marble base was not such a good idea... well, it only hurts once...

My pony is done! I'm waiting for her hair to dry, then I'll take pics and pack her up for shipping.

[StrawberryMeadow]

Are you guys not all done yet? I want to Drool over see the brag posts!

[Kazzellin]

Waiting for the first layer of body paint to dry. The clay work took me longer than I thought it would, and then I realized I had to add the hair *now* so I could do the clay work around the neck seam. So now I'm trying to paint with the hair in the way. Oh well. I really like how this pony is turning out.

[LadySatine]

I don't think I'll be done on time. It is taking more layers of paint than I thought and I want it to look nice, so I'm going to strive to be done and shipped by Friday. Hope that's okay!

[Kazzellin]

Had to do some touch-up painting while putting it on (ie, "how did that color get there??"), but seal coat #1 is done. Except for the sadle and the one hoof; started sealing it then went, "hey wait - I never put my mark on this pony! " so took the sealer off the hoof and put on my mark. Waiting for that to dry before I seal the hoof. Eyes have been glossed over twice now, might do a third layer tomorrow. I plan to put the second seal coat on tomorrow before work, if I'm able to. I close tomorrow, so don't go in until 1pm. At this stage, I think I'll be able to ship on Wednesday as planned, but it'll depend on how styling her hair tomorrow night goes. I'm off Wednesday, though, so should have plenty of time to wander down to the post before they close. 

In the meantime, it's after 11:30pm here, and I've been up since 4am. Good night.

I'm nearly finished, just need to do do half the mane, style, and assemble the base. I should be done by this weekend.
